Dear Andrew Sibbald Families,  

April 14 to 20 is National Volunteer Week.  We are so fortunate at Andrew Sibbald School to have such a vast and generous group of volunteers.  Our volunteers contribute to our school community in so many ways including organizing fun lunches, working casinos, organizing fundraisers and holding positions on our School Council and Parent Association.  One of the biggest ways they support our school is volunteering for school field trips and in-school experiences. In April, each classroom is either going on a field trip or hosting an in-school experience, and without you, we would not be able to offer these opportunities to our students.  Thank you for your volunteer spirit and contributing to our school community in such a postive and impactful way   

Paddington’s Postcards 

Thank you to everyone that supported this initiative. We are very pleased to share that we have surpassed our goal of $240 and will be donating $446 to UNICEF. This will make an impact on the lives of children that are not having their basic needs met. As a result of these efforts, we will also receive monthly postcards from Paddington. As the postcards arrive at the school, we will share them with all classrooms.  

Spring Flower and Plant Fundraiser  

Our spring flower fundraiser continues with all proceeds going towards science and robotics materials for our students.  Choose from a variety of strawberry baskets, veggie and herb packs or order some lovely flower baskets.  Order deadline is Wednesday, April 24th.  Pick- up is scheduled for Thursday, May 9th (Just before Mother’s Day!).  Click on the link below to learn more or place your order.
